The Fountain of Youth

Chapter 6

I know, it's been awhile and I'm sorry that I didn't update sooner, but here you go!

Jhi's P.O.V.

She was mad, she was angry, she wished these things were dead. And with that thought, a whole lot of fighting occurred. she grew long nails and ears, her eyes also turned amber. she slashed at all of the remaining monsters, and managed to pluck any flying birds. She then slashed through the remaining opponents stupid enough to stand in her way and advanced towards Ray while Aki was treating his wounds. "How bad are Ray's wounds?"

"They're not fatal, but it'll take him a minute or two to get back on his feet."

"Let's get him to a secure position then, so you know, he doesn't die."

Ray's P.O.V.

Ray had just been fighting, then he got hit, REALLY hard. He opened his eyes, looking for his friends, but instead of finding them, he found a sight that almost made him crumble. Standing before him was his father, encased in a mixture of cloth and steel.

"Hello, my son I think we need to talk, there is much explaining for both of us, seeing as how you will not claim your rightful title."

A long pause passed between them, but not of awkwardness, just a father and his son, understanding one another.

His voice shaky he said "So, have you finally forgiven me, father?" He said this and kneeled. All the lies that he pretended gave him guilt, these didn't come close to the guilt of him killing his father. His father only chuckled saying "your sword is sharp but your mind dull. Do you really believe that I could hold a grudge on my son? You had your orders from Alexander, which were orders that came from me. Now rise my son it's time for a little training."

Aki's P.O.V

Jhi and her stepped out of the cave making there way towards the battle wich had been going surprisingly well.
They side stepped a body rolling down the hill and kept walking. Then the man in the red cloak walked up to us.
With a light, but firm voice he said  "Where's Ray. He needs to be here."

Jhi said "Ray is in that cave over there James, but he's unconscious." Silently he cursed under his breath and the nearest monster, which seemed to be a minotaur, got his nose ring pulled out and a sword through the stomach.

"Why does Ray need to be here James?" Aki said, testing out the name.

"You guys don't know who he is, what he is, how powerful he could become?" James said with a slightly confused voice.

"Well, we know how powerful he can become, did you see that blue rapier? It was slashing through monsters like they were made of butter." Aki said while having an expression that made it quite clear that she thought she was right.

"Aki," James said, "that is a fraction of what he can do. He could fight all of us, with his eyes closed."

Jhi's P.O.V

Jhi had been pretty zoned out until the words "we know how powerful he is" came out of Aki's mouth. Apparently we have had no clue how powerful the person we had spent a better part of a week with was. Actually thinking about it is just mind boggling. A scream  shook Jhi to her core. It was Ray.

"He must be in pain! We need to get to him quickly!" And with that Jhi ran towards the cave, but James held her back and dragged her behind cover.

Ray's P.O.V

He woke up screaming. There was pain, everywhere. After a few seconds of screaming, the pain sub-sided. "Damn ritual to pass on the title is only a little nick he said. It would be fun he said." Hell no, getting stabbed through the chest hurts, a lot. Stepping out of the cave that he was put in. He raised his sword and yelled out the words that his father taught to bring out his swords power: Tengoku no ō, smite!
